Diddy

The devil is
what the devil is

the devil does
what the devil does

why blame Diddy
for what one accepts,
the cravings of a shallow ego? 

Hollywood-fame comes with an
industry price

sort of like sitting on a subway
seat, where last sat a commuter
covered with lice --

Andrea Dietrich Date: 7/3/2025 9:10:00 PM Great ending. They are a louse. Every one of them. I hear Diddy got a slap on the hand, which doesn't surprise me any Login to Reply Tom Woody Date: 7/6/2025 12:32:00 PM R.Kelly didn't. I wonder why the difference? Joe Dimino Date: 7/4/2025 4:36:00 AM My guess, connected people can get away with the worst. Thank you, Andrea; blessings!

Tom Woody Date: 7/3/2025 1:13:00 PM Such depraved deviants some of these folks. However, no one gets away with anything in the end - Revelation 21:8 Login to Reply Joe Dimino Date: 7/3/2025 1:42:00 PM It starts with taking responsibility for our own actions -- whatever Diddy is or isn't -- most of these people involved were adults...and should have known better. I knew the score at 14 years old, a good idea already of what could happen wherever I went. I am certain that, we do not know all the stories, and there were probably some naive, totally innocent victims, simply in the wrong place at the wrong time, through little fault of their own.
